As reported, Humberside Police revealed this week that a three day rooftop stand-off in Scunthorpe could cost the force as much as £100,000.

The incident, in the Westcliffe area of Scunthorpe, drained officers from across the Humberside Force, with officers and PCSOs from North East Lincolnshire having to be called in to support their colleagues.
